well it is common knowledge that billionaires have a checking account or two and a couple savings accounts where their money just sits there collecting 5, maybe 10% interest. It isn’t like their wealth is based on the value of things they own or operate like businesses that employ hundreds to even thousands of people and if you decided to “tax” their “billions” it isn’t like they’d have to liquidate those businesses to pay the taxes and thereby putting many of those people they employ out of work.

I mean, come-on we all know and have that common knowledge that the elected class, especially the demon party knows about wealth. (is this where I put the sarcasm tag...?) d;^/

Sanders is too dumb to understand wealth is not a static quantity. Wealth must be created via business activity or agriculture. Sanders thinks by robbing billionaires every one else will have more money. That will last only a short time because once the billionaires are squeezed out, all the wealth creating business activity vanishes also.
